Watch classmates make this 8-year-old cry on his birthday...for the best reason


A birthday party is a treat many kids can take for granted. But when Ángel David from Ebéjico, Colombia, turned 8-years-old, he had no such expectations.

With a limited income and four children to provide for, Ángel's mom said she'd never had the money to throw him a party. But when his teacher, Casas Ximeno, learned that his eighth birthday was coming up, she and a friend decided to do something about it.

Together with Ángel's classmates, they hatched a plan to surprise him with a birthday party at school. His heartfelt reaction was priceless!

Watch the video below to see a young boy shed tears of joy at his first-ever birthday party.
